Chapter 43: Birds and Hope

"Then let's celebrate tomorrow, and you can come over tonight."

Yayoi suddenly became serious when she heard Rin's words.

Flame also put away her original smile and looked at Rin with concern.

Without him, the curse of the caged bird of eternal life and eternity is too famous.

Thinking that his teammates would be carved with this vicious curse, Flame couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic.

But at the same time, there was an inexplicable curiosity.

What kind of state of mind can accept this tragic fate as if nothing happened?

Or, there was something that held her heart in her and made her feel so at ease, as if there was nothing to be afraid of in the world.

It's really pitiful and curious at the same time.

Next is the final lesson that Soragi-sensei conducted as a teacher.

Teach students how to survive on the battlefield.

There was only the voice of Mr. Kugi in the class, and the students listened meticulously.

After feeling the atmosphere of the battlefield, few people do not think about their future.

Taking off the Konoha forehead guard on the top of his head, Yayoi looked at the forehead guard he got from yesterday's simple three-body technique exam.

I don't know why I always feel like something is missing from it.

"Maybe it's one less horizontal line."

Yayoi thought suddenly.

.............

The sunset at dusk hangs over the mountains.

Like a dying old man, he is about to walk on the wood.

A bird soars in the sky and lands on the roof of the ancestral hall.

The bird seemed to be looking at Rin.

Rin walked in the Hyuga clan land, the ancestral hall of the clan.

The selected next generation patriarch, Hizoku, is waiting for Rin at the door of the ancestral hall.

"You're coming"

“.........”

"As a separation, you have been delaying for a long time, and today's graduation is the deadline."

Looking at the silent Rin, Hizoku also sighed.

"Keep up with me"

In the ancestral hall sat the elders of the clan.

Rin's uncle sat in the row, but he just glanced at Rin and turned his head as if he didn't dare to look at Rin.

Hizoku also stood aside after taking Rin to the ancestral hall, and on the other side was his younger brother Hiza.

Hinata looked at Rin with a look in his eyes full of complexity, as if he was looking at himself.

However, Rin is much luckier than herself, and she can carve the caged bird now.

It is precisely because of this special case that they, as the future patriarchs of the clan and the branch of the clan, will come to watch from the sidelines.

"Rin, because of your psychological trauma and the reason why your white eyes can't be opened normally, the temple people intercede for you.

But now, according to family tradition, you have to carve the caged bird. ”

The old man said majestically.

This is the old elder of the Hyuga clan.

"Let's get started"

Rin didn't want to say anything, the time had come, and it was imperative.

If you want to remove Hinata's caged bird, it must be engraved.

The Great Elder stretched out his old finger and pointed it at the center of Rin's eyebrows.

The spell mark slowly took shape under the Great Elder's cast, and a large cross was imprinted on Rin's forehead, slowly taking shape.

Smooth, Bai Zhe's skin was covered with beads of sweat from the severe pain.

But Rin never shouted, just gritted his teeth, thinking about Yayoi's encounter with him that day.

Rin is fortunate to have faith and hope in her heart that no other family else has.

With hope, she remained silent.

Finally, after a minute, the spell seal was sealed.

"Rin"

The people of Hyuga Temple turned their heads, glanced at Rin, and saw the caged bird above their heads, and were silent.

"Great Elder, can I go?"

Rin's eyes were full of calm, not even a hint of emotion.

This made the Great Elder a little surprised.

Each branch will resent when carving the caged bird, and even hate the family and the clan.

But I didn't expect this girl named Rin to be able to persist to such an extent, and her face did not change after accepting the caged bird, and she did not even have resentment.

He saw people accurately, and he thought he really didn't see hatred in Rin's eyes.

"Go back, kid, but please remember that the Split Family is the same as the Zong family, and it's Hinata's child."

But after thinking about it, the Great Elder didn't pay too much attention to it, and motioned for Rin to leave.

The people of Hyuga Temple on the side just wanted to stand up, but they were stopped by Rin's eyes.

Then Rin turned around without hesitation and walked towards the door.

At this moment, the day difference but the devil also walked up.

Hinata frowned and followed.

Then they saw something unbelievable.

The bird flying in the sky rested on Rin's hand.

Dressed in a white ninja suit, her long silky hair was draped on her sides, and the sunset seemed to cover her with a golden glow.

"Birds, fly."

This was the first emotional voice Hinata and Hizashi heard after meeting Rin.

As if pinning on the most beautiful hope in the world, the bird spreads its wings and flies freely in the air.

As if sensing someone coming behind her, she glanced at it and withdrew her gaze.

Those eyes seemed to have light, and the original indifference and calm faded, revealing the deepest beauty in them.

Rin is gone, and I don't know where I went.

Hizoku and Hizashi watched her leave step by step, leaving the ancestral hall of the clan.

Maybe you want to walk around the village and relax, or hide in the corner and cry secretly.

Hinata thought so, but then smiled self-deprecatingly.

Because it can't be.

What kind of eyes were they, full of hope, as if they contained all the goodness.

It was a pair of eyes that would never have been possible in the separation, but now she actually appeared in front of them.

Hiza doesn't know why, why Rin is still full of hope in front of the caged bird that has been carved and can't control his own destiny.

But at this moment, he felt redeemed.

It belonged to the salvation of the divided family, and he began to look forward to what this clan would do.

It seems that his unwillingness and resistance in childhood are pinned on this unknown girl.

..............

"There is a bird in the world that will never be kept in prison because every feather on his body carries the radiance of freedom."

"The caged bird can't bind you, it's my promise, and I promise to do it."

Yayoi looked at the girl sitting next to her and touched her head.

Gently, as if combing the fur of a bird.

"I believe in you"

Rin just looked at him with a determined gaze in her eyes, confidence in him.

"Collect the data"

Yayoi smiled, brushing Rin lightly across her forehead and ruffling a strand of hair.

"Well, I'll cooperate with you."

Next, Yayoi tries to collect Rin's body data and compare it with the previous data.

After years of research with Orochimaru, it was found that the curse mark of the caged bird was just an ordinary spell mark in the strict sense.

However, it seems that because of the Yin and Yang Escape Technique, he has a special property.

It is based on the white eye and acts on the nerves.
